The
Gunners
needed
a
win
to
move
back
into
fourth
place
with
one
Premier
League
game
to
play
against
Everton
on
Sunday,
but
Newcastle
did
Spurs
a
massive
favour
at
St
James’ Park.
White,
making
his
return
from
a
hamstring
injury,
turned
a
Joelinton
cross
into
his
own
net
in
the
second
half
and
Guimaraes
added
a
second
late
on
as
the
Magpies
dominated
Mikel
Arteta’s
side.

Ben

Arsenal
player
to
score
an

in

since

The
Gunners
made
a
shaky
start,
with
Aaron
Ramsdale
fortunate
not
to
gift
Miguel
Almiron
an
early
goal
when
he
took
far
too
long
on
the
ball
following
a
back
pass.
Dan
Burn
blocked
a
goal-bound
shot
from
Bukayo
Saka,
but
the
Magpies
continued
to
dictate
and
Ramsdale
make
an
excellent
save
low
to
his
right
to
deny
Allan
Saint-Maximin
after
the
French
winger
cut
in
from
the
left
at
full
tilt.
Arsenal
lost
Takehiro
Tomiyasu
to
injury
before
the
break
and
shaken
Newcastle
defender
Fabian
Schar
was
forced
off
early
in
the
second
half,
having
landed
heavily
after
taking
a
blow
to
the
head
when
he
was
caught
by
Eddie
Nketiah.
It
came
as
no
surprise
when
Eddie
Howe’s
side
took
the
lead
after
56
minutes,
when
White
prevented
Callum
Wilson
from
getting
on
the
end
of
Joelinton’s
cross
but
turned
into
his
own
net.
Wilson
volleyed
just
over
the
crossbar
and
had
a
shot
deflected
wide
by
White,
before
the
lively
striker
came
close
to
an
incredible
goal
with
a
long-range
strike
that
went
narrowly
wide.
Guimaraes
stuck
the
knife
into
Arsenal
when
he
was
on
hand
to
tuck
home
the
loose
ball
with
five
minutes
to
go
after
Ramsdale
rushed
out
to
thwart
Wilson
and
only
a
sharp
reaction
save
from
the
Arsenal
goalkeeper
prevented
Ryan
Fraser
from
adding
a
third.
